LR3 Feature Request - Heal Preset/Import Capability and Stuck Pixels

(Note: I posted something similar some time ago but the original thread seems to be inaccessible although a cached Google version is available here. )
2 features requests but with a common theme :-
1) Spot removal/cloning/healing added to a preset. Currently the only way to do this is to copy and synchronise during an editing session of photos that have already been imported.  The capability to save spot removal as a preset would be very useful for dealing with recurring dust spots and similar issues.
Which leads to request 2 -
2)  The ability to manually 'tune' the hot pixel removal capability. Currently LR is failing to deal with some stuck/hot pixels on one of my cameras (a Ricoh GRD III) if this is linked to the way DNG has been implemented in the Ricoh, as suggested in the earlier thread re this subject, then a response from Adobe to confirm this would be appreciated, either way some ability to 'tell' LR what to do would be of benefit.

Thanks for the response Rob, saving a 'target' image is a good idea, but other than that I don't see this workaround as being particularly different from the approach I outlined in my initial post. One of the most useful capabilities LR has is being able to apply presets during import, yet Adobe for whatever reason have not allowed any of the tools (other than graduated filters) to be applied this way, I would love to know why. There was a 'bug' with LR 1 if I remember correctly whereby spot settings could be saved to a preset, but this was 'fixed' in a later release, so it appears to be possible to implement this functionality, yet they have decided not to do so.

  • Oil Paint Feature Request:  Preview / No Preview Capability

    A feature notably absent from the Oil Paint filter is any way to temporarily disable the effect (e.g., not preview it).
    I happen to like using Oil Paint to make refllections in the surface of water smoother and more "liquid" (which involves turning off the "Shine"), and it would really be nice if I could easily gauge the amount of the effect easily by blinking back and forth between original and processed image with a quick "disable preview" functionality.
    With most standard filters, one can either uncheck a [ ] Preview box, and/or click the mouse button down on the image to temporarily show what the image is like without the effect.
    Yes, I know I can turn the Stylization down to 0.1 and see how a very minimal amount of the effect can be  applied.  And I can look at the original image in Photoshop proper, but of course that can't be zoomed while the Oil Paint filter is active.
    Also, the zooming / panning seems kind of stiffly implemented.
    In summary, the more or less standard and expected filter features I'd like to see added to this (new class of) GPU-accelerated filters are:
    Preview/No Preview capability.  It doesn't have to update Photoshop, just the preview display in the filter itself.  I suggest a [  ] Preview checkbox and/or an on-mouse-click temporary effect disable.
    Modal click and drag Zooming vs. Panning - i.e., based on a Zoom or Pan function selected (e.g., via an icon along the left) vs. having to hold modifier keys down.  I personally would want it set to Zoom by default, not Pan.  Since the filter has scroll bars (a Good Thing), I would have thought Zoom would have been a better default as it is.
    I have implemented these things in my own GPU-accelerated plug-ins, so I know that all the infrastructure Adobe needs to support them is already in there.  These changes are controls only and should be trivial to implement.
    P.S., There may be well-meaning folks amongst you who will want to suggest I post this over on Photoshop.com.  Not going to happen.  That forum is even more irritating than this one, and frankly I want little to do with it.  I think the concept of public voting on features is ridiculous.  If Adobe sees this here and chooses to consider it, fine.  If not, fine.

    While I can’t find the thread currently I think Mr.Cox commented on one occasion that the expenditure of updating the older filters’ (like Radial Blur) interface would have to be justified with (extensive) documentation of advantages and/or what-not.

    TRUE!  I have long been critical of Adobe's reluctance to revisit older parts of their software and bring them up to date, so as a result we users have to live with a hodge-podge of variations on the UI - and also more importantly in functionality.  Why, for example, doesn't someone think it's important to fund development to bring all the older artistic filters up to date so they work on 16 bit data?  There really is an obvious downside to Adobe having no competition.  The product has gotten damned sloppy as a result.  For example, an engineer developing a new feature can pick and choose from any number of other features already in existence (however outdated) and make the new one work the same way, claiming compatibility with something already there, and thus "good enough".

  • FEATURE REQUEST: After Effects style Placeholders and Proxies

    If you feel the needs in efficient proxy workflow, welcome to the club and don't hesitate to submit feature request.
    Here is the adjusted to less than 2000 symbols feature request text:
    ***After Effects style Placeholders and Proxies*** 
    It would be nice if PrPro offered AE style Placeholders and Proxies workflow. There are cases, where they are extremely useful, e.g.:
    1. Huge modern formats and resource hungry codecs. Not all machines can easily handle 2k or 4k footages, some can't get real time playback even with AVCHD. Not to mention that CinemaDNG importer was discontinued partly because of inability to get real time playback in PrPro. The issue can be resolved via rendering previews, but that's not always the most efficient workflow.
    2. In multicam editing issues mentioned above increase dramatically. Rendering preview for every camera angle is simply impossible. Although PrPro offers offline clips workflow, an editor can't easily see if the clip is currently linked to a source footage or a proxy, and switching between sources and proxies involves several steps every time one needs to switch: selecting assets, making them offline, right-clicking again to link to other media, locating files on a disk; while in After Effects it's just one click once a proxy is set.
    3. Adobe Dynamic Link. PrPro communicates with AE projects via single instance of headless AE, which creates a bottleneck and entails the need to render DI for complex comps. Although AE allows to set DIs as proxies and, hence, enjoy the best of both worlds, instantly switching between DI and dynamically linked comp and no needs to replace anything in PrPro timeline, with hundreds of dynamically linked comps PrPro timeline becomes unresponsive and takes forever to render (for my rig test 30 min sequence built out of 935 dynamically linked comps, which are just source footages in their own comps, hence, the equivalent to rendered DIs set to proxies, takes around 27 hours to render, while 30 min sequence built out of the same 935 source footages renders in real time). Meanwhile, PrPro doesn't currently allow to link offline dynamically linked comps to rendered DIs.

    As the person who maintains the feature request database for After Effects, I can confirm that the number of times an item has been requested is a major factor when we consider what to work on next. So are other factors, such as how hard the feature is to implement and maintain, how much testing is involved (often the larger concern than programming time), whether the request conflicts with something else that we are already working on, and so on. It is true that we consider not just raw numbers of requests but the details of who is making the requests---e.g., whether the requests are coming from animators or compositors, beginners or experts.
    I can only speak for the After Effects team, but the Premiere Pro team works much the same way (which is unsurprising, since we are in the same group and have overlapping team members).
    We also try to give some visibility into the most requested items with posts like this:

  • X220 with backlight leak and stuck pixel

    I just ordered x220 from lenovo. I recived the box yesterday and found my new thinkpad had many backlight leak and 1 stuck pixel at the center. I am very disappoint with it. Can I return it, change to new one or send to lenovo sevice center in thailand to change my IPS display.
    I ordered it on 5/26/11. My friend in USA passed it to me on 6/6/11 then I recieved package in Thailand on 6/10/11.
    This is my backlight leak.
    http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/840/img0056yz.jpg/
    Unfortunately I can not take stuck pixel image.
    I hope lenovo will help me fix this problem.
    Thank you.

    welcome to the forum!
    the current policy is that a display must have three or more dead or stuck pixels to be considered defective.   one is simply not enough.
    http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-69856
    regarding the backlight bleed, it looks normal to me for an LED notebook panel.   i could create a condition where even $5000 IPS graphics displays show some sort of backlight bleed on a black background with brightness at full power.   no display is perfect in this regard.   my X220 IPS panel has a slight amount of bleed under the right conditions but is only noticable 1% of the time.
    if this is unsatisfactory, you may try contacting lenovo support in thailand at 1-800-060-066 or 66 2273 4088 between 8AM and 5PM monday-friday.   however, please note that they will likely refer to the same pixel policy above.   whether or not they will make an acception due to the location of the stuck pixel is up to them.
    also, i've removed your second account "eldonler" as we don't allow members to have more than one login per our community participation rules.   thanks for understanding.

  • IPT and Stuck Pixel Issue?

    Well I do have a week 39, tho I don't have any problems with it, but the fact that the stuck pixel can be quite annoying, not that it's a big stuck pixel, but it's rather a tiny one but on few places. But is it worth going back and exchanging for a new one or just keep the one I have? Even when PSP came out, most psp did have dead/stuck pixels but I've heard some say that with the black LCD's, it's not the manufacturer's fault for creating a dead/stuck pixel, that it is just there when they make them (I may be wrong but that's what I heard) Due to the fact that even if you exchange for a new one that the new one COULD have more stuck pixels than the previous one, so is it still worth going back and exchanging for a new one? What would I say to them? Will they give me a new one because of a stuck pixel? I did ask them that if any problem occurs that they will exchange for a new one within a month, and I suppose I heard them say that if somethings wrong with the screen that it's 2 week (probably about dead/stuck pixels). I want to know your opinions on what I should do. Though it is my decision, I've read other threads that people exchange theirs because they have a stuck pixel.

    Yea I went yesterday, but for some reason they couldn't see the stuck pixels, and I showed the location of the stuck pixels and still they could not find any. Which is surprising because the store was filled with bright light. When at home, I can see the stuck pixels. They told me to take a close shot of the stuck pixels with a camera (this is very ridiculous to me) and to bring it back and show them. So I did.
    Now, they are out of stock and won't receive their next shipment in 2 weeks. Well looks like I'll have to wait 2 weeks without my touch. I did not return it, but waiting for an exchange. Since I got mine on Monday the 8th, I have a bit over 1 week left before the 14 days are over, however, they told me that if I want to exchange I have to leave my touch with them since they were out of stock, and this way the 14 day thing will stop here. I find this ridiculous, I'm not sure about U.S but I live in Korea, they said they won't get there next shipment till 2 weeks, while I'm sure that U.S gets their new shipment the next day, but due to the supply and demand, i'm sure even in U.S they are out of stock (I may be wrong on this, but the supply is at scarce and the demand is high as of now).
    Now when I went there today, They only had 1 80 GB Ipod Classic left, and there were tons of Ipod Nano 3rd Gen. They were out of Touch.
    So they told me to give me my name and my contact so that when their next shipment arrives that they will contact me first thing when the next shipment arrives and they will reserve it for me. And that they will give me the screen protector for Free and that they will apply them on the screen, which is nice and makes me as a costumer happy.
    Now I do know the fact that even if I get a new touch, there is still a possibility that I could get another with stuck pixels, and if that happens, I guess I'll have to live with it.
    I'm not sure if I should take my laptop with me so that I can load up my music there on the spot and find any stuck pixels, but i'm sure the genious won't be too happy with me if I did that.
    I'm sorry for this long story, but that it is ridiculous how they don't get their next shipment in 2 weeks. Now I have no touch with me, but just a box, my nano (2nd gen) is broken and nothing I can do. Looks like I'd have to wait. For those who read this, I'm sorry for this long writing but it's my story after I had to go back to the store twice.
    BTW. I'm sure most likely that I will get a week 40+ IPT. So if anybody who does have a week 40+, I want some feedbacks if they encountered any problems. I'm sure it won't but who knows.

  • Feature request: better tools for commenting and editing text

    We currently use a comments-enabled Acrobat workflow with InDesign to track changes to our large catalog project. Was hoping to move our team over to CS Live, but currently the commenting tools are sub-par, and not accurate enough for extensive text editing. My request would be to imitate the text editing functionality of Acrobat:
    In CS Live online:
    - allow users to be able to copy selected text. (This is useful when a reviewer wants to be able to modify a sentence or paragraph. It's a headache now to have to retype the sentence prior to making modifications)
    - Ability to highlight text and hit "delete" to mark text as deleted, or highlight and type over to indicate replaced text
    - Ability to click to insert text, and have the comment appear with the inserted text designation (little blue carat like in Acrobat)
    - ability to highlight a section of text
    In InDesign:
    - ability to copy the text in a comment and NOT copy all the other extraneous meta data. (Currently, if you click "copy text", it will copy the comment along with all the details about the comment. For example, "- Amy Stewart [10.06.11 at 12:56 PM]"
    - ability to see in InDesign the EXACT part of the text that needs to be modified. Right now, the red box outlines the general area. The CS Review panel shows a tiny thumbnail with black highlight over the area of text that needs to be changed, but unfortunately, there's no way to zoom in on it, so you're stuck having to toggle between InDesign and the online review, where it's possible to zoom. (This diminishes the utility of the CS Review panel.)
    If you were able to incoroprate all the commenting functionality of Acrobat, I think you'll have a winner. But right now, we're going to have to stick with Acrobat as it's the only way to easily modify text.

    Sorry if I might be stating the obvious (but at least I was such a *dummy* once that I needed this explicitely):
    In order to move the sequence of images per drag&drop in grid view you need to
    Put the sort order in the bottom toolbar to "user order" (toggle visibility with letter T if not displayed)
    Grab an image from within its thumbnail, not from its border-cell.
    When you move around you see a vertical black thick line wandering in between images where you would be able to drop it
    Put the images first into a collection in case they should be spread across multiple folders.
    This is the reason why most often from a filter result you cannot re-arrange.
    Still sometimes it does not work as I want, but can *be persuaded*, i.e. I repeat the same trial after first moving to another collection, then return back. I can't nail it down sufficiently to file a bug.
    For an automated sorting according to filename (chosse that setting finally in toolbar) you could rename the photos in place, without exporting & re-importing. Just select them and hit <F2> to bring up the renaming dialog like possible during import.
    +1 vote from me, as I am neither satisfied with the responsiveness of moving folders within LR e.g. from laptop hard disk to NAS.
    Apart from that I try not to build much on my folder structure, just break them into manageable quantities and have a quick "diary-overview" by using naming convention "YYYY-MM-DD description of event" (pictures of up to 4 cameras go inside, unique filenames for Canons achieved by renaming during import). For all the rest I prefer to build (smart) collections.

  • Feature Request: Ability to import multiple audio tracks

    Hello, I'm having a problem with Premiere Pro CC 2014.2. Unfortunately it lacks an important feature that I require if I'm to transition from Sony Vegas Pro. I much prefer Premiere, but I'm stuck using Vegas due to Premiere's inability to import all the audio tracks in my video files. I've seen a few other people around the internet complaining of the same problem and they also feel that it's rather silly for such a major editing software to lack this feature.
    Here is an example video file. If you open it in Premiere Pro you'll not be able to hear my microphone, although it's there in Windows Media Player and Sony Vegas.

    I've read on several video editing forums that this is just how Premiere is and you simply can't load the audio channel. Also the video file was made in Bandicam. I've also tried Dxtory and had the same problem.
    Edit:
    Looked at the media properties for the video and saw this:
    Audio track 1:
    Size is 42.74M bytes
    Rate is 48000 samples/sec
    Sample size is 16 bits
    Audio track 2:
    Size is 0 bytes
    Rate is 48000 samples/sec
    Sample size is 16 bits
    I know for a fact that there's audio data in that track.

  • Feature request: Support for {table abbr} and {table} in Table scripts

    Hi Data Modeler Team,
    support for {table abbr} and {table} in table scripts ("Table properties"->"Scripts"->All four tabs) would be greatly appreciated as it makes it easier to use boilerplate SQL in these areas.
    Is it possible to add this feature to one of the upcoming releases?
    Thank you,

  • Feature Request: Song Controls in Coverflow and Bigger touch buttons

    Something that really needs to be added to the iPhone software for the iPod are song controls ( |<< and >>| buttons) when the phone is resting sideways and in coverflow mode. I use the iPhone in my car as an MP3 player, and if it is in coverflow mode and I am listening to an entire Genre (on shuffle), there is no way skip forward to the next song - this also becomes a problem if I'm using an armband. It would be nice if Apple added forward/backward skip buttons in the coverflow mode.
    Also - another concern is that touch-area around the song control buttons when you are NOT in coverflow mode isa bit small. When you are driving in a car, it actually becomes difficult to find the right area to touch (you know the >>| button) to skip to the next song. These would benefit from a small increase in size or just the touch area surrounding the button.
    These seem like simple changes that can be easily implemented. Anyone else have these same concerns? Does anyone else have any other simple features that could be added to the iPod functionality to make it easier to use?
    Message was edited by: dpbeardsley

    Since this is a user to user help forum only for technical support issues and questions, best to use the iPhone feedback link for such feedback, which at least ensures that your feedback is forwarded to and read by the appropriate Apple personnel but does not ensure that your request will be implemented.

  • Feature Request:  Useful toStrings in Cookie and HttpServletResponse/Reques

    Hi. It seems obvious to me that the Cookie.toString() should give the text representation of the Cookie as it will appear in the HTTP header. The reason that I need this is that Java does NOT support HttpOnly and I need to insert it into the Cookie manually. I can do this somewhat using HttpServletResponse.setHeader(java.lang.String name, java.lang.String value) except that I have a complex application with Cookies being set multiple times and there is no HttpServletResponse.getHeader(java.lang.String name) to allow me to read what'[s in the SET-COOKIE header, dynamically change it and write it back.
    A reasonable implementation of HttpServletResponse.toString would allow me to do what I need to do also, but that alas also just shows the reference.
    HttpOnly will not be the last custom HTTP cookie attribute or HTTP header and Java should give better support for dynamically managing HTTP headers.
    I think that toStrings are a great idea, but it seems that as a general rule, useful toStrings have not been implemented in the Java libraries.

  • FEATURE REQUEST: Independently zoom page size and font size

    Firefox lets me zoom the page in and out, which is great, but usually useless. The problem I usually have is that font is the right size, but the text doesn't all fit in the window. What Firefox needs is a way to independently zoom text and page size. Then, I could fit all of the text in the window without making the text microscopic. Here's how it would work: CTRL+- ZOOMS JUST THE PAGE SIZE. The text size would remain the same. CTRL-SHIFT+- ZOOMS JUST THE TEXT. The page size would remain the same.
    I know this is possible. The fact that Firefox can zoom the text only without affecting the page size is evidence of that. Firefox is always looking for good ideas that have never been done before. Well, this is one of them. Do it, and we would love you all forever!

    Web pages with a fixed width layout will always be a problem for any zoom feature. Assuming Firefox wants to adjust the layout so it can't exceed the width of the window, should it just do a proportional adjustment of widths or try to keep sidebars the same while reducing a main area, or wrap a sidebar to the bottom of the content (as though it were a floated element), etc., etc. Maybe the experience of programming zoom on mobile browsers will feed back some learning to desktop browsers, but UI designers have a long way to go there as well.
    In the short run, maybe something like the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/readability/ Readability extension] will help tame those unruly layouts?

  • Feature Request - geotagging on Import

    I currently use Downloader Pro which enables me to point to a folder containing GPS tracks and will then geocode the files while copying them off the card.  Would be great if Lightroom could do this natively...

    Having *some* automated way to handle this would be great.  I look with envy at Aperture's "Locations" features.
    For the time being, I would settle for having the 'GPS' field available (viewable and editable) even if the photo doesn't yet have geo-data.  To me, it's just silly not to make that available.  What's the downside?... people making mistakes in their GPS coordinates?
    I've used a few geoencoding tools including Geosetter and Jeffrey Friedl's fine plug-ins.  Being able to do more in Lightroom itself would be much preferred.

  • Feature request: text notes for catalog and photos

    I would like to have ability to add plain text notes — to whole catalog, to separate directories and to a single photo.
    When I'm sitting with a client and walking throung photos, he often says something like: «Let's pick this photo but change color to blue and paint out hands». Now I have to pencil it, but why not to add a field to Lightroom DB for this kind of notes?
    And a directory notes. I'm storing different photosets in different directories, there are a lot's of them, and sometimes it's hard to remember what kind of developement I've planned for this set.
    By the way, it would be be great to mark directories with sone kind of color and/or rating. Maybe «ready to publish», «developement in progress», «just picked» etc.

    Hi Alex,
    I'm glad you found a solution for the per-photo notes.
    Maybe in a while somebody will write one to handle per-folder notes. In fact, if I were to do it, it would just be a simple Lightroom Dialog Box that reads/writes a text file in your folder directory. And, if I do, I'll make sure the filename is configurable, so you could get a head start .
    You would have to close the dialog box though to do anything else in Lightroom, then re-open to re-edit, and so forth... - do you think that would work for you?
    Similarly for the catalog notes.

  • Feature Request: save metadata to file, and read metadata from file.

    Please have function to save metadata to file, and read metadata from file.
    This would allow us to write cross-platform plugins that can assure data is up-to-date in the xmp, or modify xmp and have it reinstated in the catalog.
    This would go nicely with the ability to save xmp for virtual copies, dng, and rgb formats.

    Perhaps someone with direct experience with publishing to Smugmug will chime in.  Short of that, some thoughts on your issues:
    Should I not bother to "Save Metadata to File", this seems to be what is messing up the SmugMug publish service?
    I very much doubt that it is messing up the publishing.  What gets saved to the file from the catalog is independent of what gets exported.  Saving metadata to the file is generally a good practice (in case you screw up your catalog backups).  Many, perhaps most, users set the preference Catalog Settings > Automatically Write Changes Into XMP.
    I would have expected it to behave like an export which would write synonyms, exclude keywords that should be excluded, etc, which seems to work ok in point 6 above.
    Yes, that's a reasonable expectation.
    You may have done this already, but double-check: Right-click the Smugmug publishing service in the left-hand column of the Library, select Edit Settings, and in the Metadata section verify that you have Include: All Metadata set.
    Did you download the Smugmug plugin from Smugmug? You might try this Smugmug plugin instead -- the author designed the publishing architecture of LR and has an excellent reputation. 
    Are the publish services more effort than they are worth? So I get SmugMug to work, what happens when I try Flickr?
    I think many users find the publishing services are generally worthwhile.  I publish regularly to Flickr (using the built-in Flickr plugin, which isn't completely reliable) and the Zenfolio plugin from Friedl. 

  • Feature Requests for BlackBerry​10 OS

    +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
    This thread has been closed and is continued in this new thread here: 
    Feature Requests beyond BlackBerry OS10.3.1
    Please click on that link.
    +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
    Let's use this thread to list BlackBerry10 OS feature requests. There's nothing official to this thread, but one never knows who might view it and get an idea or two to move foward.
    Please let's keep it to feature requests with simple short statements and comments, in this manner:
    1. Ability to lock the volume keys (since they are so easliy pressed when retrieving from holster)
    2. Personal distribution groups Address Book
    4. Add BBM Group icon to home screen
    **This thread is not for bug reports (i.e., the calendar glitches when I set the date) or for debate or discussion of the worthiness of a feature request.
    So, what would YOU add to BB10?
    What do YOU need to make the OS platform work better for you?
    Here are the collected feature requests as of 04 April 2013. Thanks for Ride_The_Sky for helping collect these from this thread.
    There are listed in no order, just as collected.
    Ability to lock the volume keys (since they are so easily pressed when retrieving from holster)
    Personal distribution groups Address Book
    Add BBM Group icon to home screen
    Way to add line carriage to BBM messages
    Why doesn't the most used name come up first? <- In latest OS, there is another line with most common contacts, but when typing it won't provide most commonly emailed contacts.
    Bring back the option "Send As" or include this option in "Share"
    Enable word wrap when zooming in to emails and messages.
    Import Distribution lists from Outlook on your desktop to your Z10?
    *The option* to always show the hub main screen when opening the hub, so when peeking it always shows the hub even if you leave it in another screen.
    Offer Balance without BES to have two workspaces in device.
    Delete on Server/Device/Both
    Delete on Server but Keep on Device (This is going to be tough since EAS does not work like POP, using POP you can do this by deleting on server after sync)

    Default Currency Option
    More options to lower data usage in e-mail (Headers Only / Roaming Profiles)

    Calendar in Landscape mode
    Option to Disable shutter sounds in camera.
    Auto BCC option
    Multiple appointments in lock screen, not only next one.

    Ability to have multiple mobile numbers, such as mobile1, mobile2, for people with more than one cellphone
    Ability to have multiple work numbers, home numbers, etc
    Ability to have option for actually creating "custom" names for phone numbers, emails, VOIP,

    Ability to have custom Individual text and ringtones for each contact set within contacts app
    Vibrate option for Alarm
    Mail Filters for Priority mails.
    Option to block ringtones from music app (i don't see ringtones in my music app, I guess poster refers to custom mp3 files)
    Swipe down to close, up to minimize (but some apps have menus associated with swipe up gesture)
    Swipe half way up the screen to minimize an application to an active tile.
    Swipe it all the way up the screen to close the application.
    Playbook app switching gestures (swipe sideways, I guess this won't work since there are other gestures associated with side-swiping)

    Airplane mode on status bar options.
    Option to customize status bar with select Settings/Options.
    Colors for Hub!
    Face recognition for camera, being able to associate contacts with faces or pull info from Facebook, etc.

    Import text messages in various formats from various systems.
    Sorting and Ordering of the way contacts are displayed depending on account.
    While editing an entry in calendar, notification about a recent call may cause loss of data in that entry.
    Location for Calendar entries and be able to see it on the map with a tap.
    Being able to see multiple pictures from an email by swiping left and right to see next/previous without having to reopen (I must say the same thing is needed for App World, why can't we just scroll through screenshots??)
    Multiple flags or ability to set a flag date, associate with a reminder.
    Move people from TO to CC or BCC easily (If I may add, also ability to backspace to delete a contact without having to tap the X in blue box).
    Option to add favorites to Hub for easy to reach contact management (I think it is same as going to contacts and choosing Favs)

    Add more colors to LED notification (I think they are there now, orange, green, red so far, did not see blue, I don't think blue is needed in my opinion)

    Make it easier to order world clocks, instead of the order they are added.
    Alarms based on days/schedule.
    Easier way to get to the bottom of e-mails (I think it scrolls pretty fast, I think poster wants "B" shortcut)
    Easer way to get to the bottom of web pages (same as above, space or B shortcut?)
    Add option to ask if you really want to dial, instead of just dialing right away every time a phone number is clicked/tapped on.
    Ability to resize image before attaching to an e-mail.
    More than 30 days email sync on device, please!
    Make BB boot up slower, so we can actually get to do something else while waiting for it to start!
    SSH client would be nice.
    Another keyboard like Swipe (honestly, I have never typed faster in my life on any other on screen keyboard, Z10 keyboard is awesome!)
    Volume lock/unlock button on demand.
    Auto Run app on device boot up.
    Lock or Pin apps.
    Ability to run background apps (Google Talk is running in the background, or it is tricking me, I don't know but I am getting messages from it when it is shut down on BB10, I hope they do Skype the same way)
    Ability to have multiple documents of same type open at the same time (tabbed docs2go)
    Calendar sharing of BB10 users in the area/company/group.

    From Call Menu when going into contacts, it should be ready to search with keyboard out.
    Option to customize volume key to act as page up/down, etc depending on app running.

    Better headphones with the phone (hey, we didn't even get any!)
    Better night shots in camera (hardware or software improvement?)
    Ability to choose which address book to sync with bluetooth car.
    When app is opened from a folder three or four pages into apps list, we hope the screen can go back to that spot when the app is closed (sadly it uses active frames at the moment)
    Change acceptance of auto corrected key, instead of space key, make it something else (actually, you can just backspace to un-autocorrect it back to what you typed).
    Ability to load certificates (X 509 S/MIME and/or PGP/MIME) from a computer
    Ability to sign and or encrypt emails (POP3)  before sending (As in MS Office Outlook)
    Ability to receive and recognize signed and or encrypted emails (POP3) (As in MS Office Outlook)

    Ability to encrypt the memories Device and Media of the Q10 like it is done for the BB9900
    Ability to encrypt selected folders (preferably by Private Key)
    Ability to create Self-Decrypting Archive like in PGP
    Ability to delete email-messages by group as an alternate option to one by one
    Opening Video-chat to non-BBM users (Skype for instance)
    For above encryption request, SecuSmart was suggested...
    Renaming the file without extension can break the file or hide it from pictures list.
    Wallpaper scrolling sideways.
    Standalone e-mail app (not sure how different it is than choosing emails-only for hub)
    Different colors or small tabs in different colors for different accounts in Hub.
    Share webpages with smart tag (I think you can just create it by pasting the URL into create QR)
    Application management (being able to see which app takes up how much space, etc..) CPU/Memory/Battery Usage/Data Usage/Storage Usage in more details
    Custom vibration options.
    Move Send button in BBM to avoid accidental submission of message
    Forward As… SMS, MMS, EMAIL from one to another.
    Send SMS to new numbers (I think you can still do this from call log)
    Single key press to change profiles.
    Insert a picture into an e-mail. (I think he means into the body of email)
    Turning off links of contacts (I think poster did not have multiple accounts, actually BB10 goes ahead and adds all new contacts into all address books in all accounts without user permission.. Create a contact in Hotmail? Gets copied to Gmail.. and then linked, terrible implementation in my opinion)
    Presets for browser bookmarks, faster access to bookmarks. (My suggestion was to create a home screen, select 12 icons 3x4 or 16 icons 4x4 as home screen/start page)
    Being able to allow flash based on website/url/server.
    Ability to adjust different sounds/volumes for different BBM users/groups
    Better Voice Dial and Voice Commands (shorter and easier operation)
    Ability close one or all web pages/tabs, add "Close All" button.
    Call Recording
    Faster way to delete e-mails, such as file icons next to e-mails,  or Swipe to Delete! Swipe to File!?
    Customize email signatures with formatting.
    Phone to stay on screen (dial pad always available in panes)
    More Options for Clock.
    In Playbook we can have a single character password, why not on BB10? "too short" well it is my decision, isn't it?
    There is no way to go next/previous while reading an e-mail. Please add these functions.
    Add to the e-mail client, Next Unread / Previous Unread.
    E-mail or Hub should have more buttons at the bottom in landscape mode. Why keep only three (or four in e-mail view) buttons when you have the real estate. It would be extremely handy if you allowed users to edit which buttons should go at the bottom. Next Previous is really needed while reading an e-mail. For example I would love to add "File" button at the bottom as a shortcut instead of forward, I rarely forward, but I file all the time. Maybe allow users to have two row of keys, add next/previous/unread. Or it could be done with a gesture. How about swiping the account name (top blue bar while reading e-mail) left and right?
    When you create a new contact in BlackBerry, it gets synced to all accounts on the Hub. There is no way to limit the new contact to a specific account.
    Sometimes when you file an e-mail to a folder, it stops and waits few seconds with no message. Even when it files immediately, there is a confirmation message that takes time to appear and disappear, and the folder list does not disappear automatically.
    Messages filed automatically by server using server side filter rules are still showing up on Blackberry hub/inbox. In older BB versions the filtered messages did not show up in the list, filed messages still did.
    When you filter your e-mails using Filter / Unread function, new unread e-mails do not show up until you close the filter and re-open. It won't just keep refreshing your screen with unread e-mails. Can BB add a button to the hub "Unread Hub" so when hub shows 8 or 2, you can actually see unread items easily without having to through so many taps.
    Native BB QR scanner (Smart Tags) does not work with barcodes (it only scans with no way to use the information). There is Open In function but it doesn't work properly.
    We need to add more customs search providers, and be able to add custom search strings/wildcards. For example currently there is Google, Bing, Yahoo, Foursquare, etc..
    I hope BB introduces the ability include more standard & custom searches, IMDB, PriceGrabber, Ebay, Youtube, XYZ Forums, ABC Newspaper, 123 Database, Etc.. Most sites nowadays provide search string in their URL Search=?* etc...
    None of the Battery apps can access system settings to add a battery icon to the top. I wish battery percentage was there.
    There is no way to check carrier/mobile signal strength.
    Blackberry, please add the date and carrier / SSID info to the top. Sometimes we just want to glance at the top to see the date without having to swipe.
    Please bring back keyboard shortcuts. Since we can easily swipe up to bring the keyboard, just add keyboard shortcuts in e-mail, phone (true speed dialing, dialing by word?), and browser, etc.. if possible. I could always call 1800SOMETHING# now I have to look up the number or use dial pad.. Please bring it back.
    Camera zoom function needs to be fixed, also please include option of fixed focus by tapping on the screen to focus. The auto focus in video is focusing in and out to various objects all the time. Stabilization feature also causes tearing/ripples, I guess it is good if you are stationary. Or use Volume Keys to Zoom.
    Please allow more than 12 icons in an icon group/folder, I hated Apple for limiting apps per folder, please fix it.
    Auto ON/OFF feature is not there anymore. BB should consider Auto DND (DoNotDisturb) or Auto Silent/Airplane modes instead.
    Please find a way to stop the music app from automatically starting up every time it connects to bluetooth like car audio. This is very annoying.
    No Panaroma mode in Camera app, why not? It is very easy to incorporate. This could be a nice addition to next release, and easy.
    The text selection grips needs to be a little bigger, sometimes I cannot see where I am moving them, they work better in Playbook, nice big tabs.
    Call Functions, before answering a phone add sideways gesture functions, like swiping right will forward the call, swiping left will answer with a test message, etc..
    Or there should be a way to reject the call without sending it to voice mail, phones had this function a decade ago, I don't know what happened to it.
    We used to be able to see the "History" without having to save the contact. Now I don't see any way to "View History" of a certain phone number, it just keeps adding
    them as individual entries to the log. Now I can't see when was the last time they called me, how many times we spoke which day, etc... I loved this feature in BB5.
    Where is BB Traffic? Where is BB Weather, without having to run an active frame? It will eventually disappear if you run too many apps. I liked a little Icon that shows me what the temp is, instead of running a whole app.
    There is no Skype. This day and age with all other platforms having it, please either get skype (Microsoft) to cooperate, or open up BBM to other platforms. If necessary, pay Skype to develop the app, then charge BB users for the app. Most will gladly pay.
    Can we tap and hold on an active frame to pin it, or can we pin two favorite apps between Call and Search & Search and Camera buttons in the bottom bar? How about Close All running Active Frames app to quickly free up ram?
    I hope next generation devices have two speakers or speaker that is facing forward. When playing games or watching videos in landscape mode, I find my palm muting the speaker. I have to hold it gently with fingers to have a gap in between, something I don't want to do when I am on the subway or bus.
    Blackberry Maps should have a Zoom In/Zoom Out buttons, sometimes using it with one hand, it is impossible to zoom in and out. (Zoom in is OK but we can't zoom back out)

    - ability to choose deletion of an email on handset only

    - auto power on/off
    - contacts syncing with yahoo & Outlook (almost two weeks trying to work around it and no luck)
